Director of Provider Database

Interested in being part of a project that will take Health Information Technology to a new level?

The Primary Care Information Project (PCIP) Taskforce is an interdivisional program designed to use health information technology to improve population health in NYC. As part of a Mayoral priority, the Taskforce coordinates the NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH)'s activities to provide leadership in citywide initiatives to extend the use of electronic health records (EHR) among thousands of ambulatory primary care providers. The DOHMH will help to transform the delivery of health care services to medically underserved communities throughout the City by helping providers to move from a paper based to an electronic health care delivery system.

As Director of Provider Database, you will:
- Create a master relational database that will link all existing DOHMH/ provider/practice lists, as well as provider information collected from the American Medical Association and other external sources.
- Coordinate, oversee the development of the database, analyze content, and supervise and mentor a database assistant assigned to this project.
